    Also using some simple math here. If there are 2,200 bottles left and worst case scenario, everyone gets 6...I will be safe if there are 365 people ahead of me. I'm terrible at math, but if I'm correct (probably not) hopefully the odds are ever in my favor.

    Perhaps I should have stated it like this;

    I can't imagine dropping that much cash on one single beer.

    I'm guessing he's a mule for a group of traders.

    Or was totally blown away and needed to assure himself of a lifetime supply.

    The bottles are good but way different than at the Bruery event. Tons more vanilla.

    They just posted an updated on FB. 2800 bottles left, 6 per person limit, 19.50 each. Goes on sale at 4PM on tuesday. They will have a to go line for bottles and custom glassware in the warehouse and 3 kegs on hand if you want to try it there.

    Is the vanilla so strong that it tastes waxy or medicinal?

    Nah. Feels like it just raises the overall sweetness to much more than on tap.

    8. I think it's very good, if a bit too pricey (though I realize Vanilla beans are expensive as fuck)

    I'll be maxing out and coming back for more. Solid beer, overall would take it over a VR. It'll be fun to do a side by side with VR, nooner 9 and Madagascar.

    I would say it beats vanilla rye from tap, but not VR from the bottle. Vanilla rye on tap taste medicinal/artificial to me. But vanilla rye from the bottle was delish, very marshmallow forward.

    9.5/10. Best BA west-coast stout I had, possibly of all times. But I may like vanilla too much.

    9/10. I still give Vanilla Rye (from the bottle) a slight edge which says a lot about this beer. Great vanilla flavor (no medicinal taste), very smooth and great body.

    I tried this at H24, and I enjoyed this better than VR. The nose had more vanilla, and it followed through with the taste. Not too boozy either. It's definitely worth the hype.

    I will be handling the bottle sales tomorrow, if the line is long I apologize. But hey you get to talk to me, that's cool right? Not really though.

    Remember if you guys have any questions feel free to ask me.
